Finally! 🎉🎉🎉

A statue honoring legendary two-time Boston Marathon champion and Narragansett Native American Ellison “Tarzan” Brown has officially crossed the finish line.

The life-size bronze statue now stands proudly in Rooney Park in Westerly, recognizing one of Rhode Island’s greatest athletes and the man whose unforgettable victory inspired the name “Heartbreak Hill” at the Boston Marathon.

The project was funded through nearly $70,000 in donations from close to 300 supporters, including local runners, businesses, community organizations, and members of Brown’s family. We had the chance to visit the statue last week, and it’s a beautiful tribute to a Rhode Island legend whose remarkable story is finally receiving the recognition it deserves

If you've been collecting nips, we want to remind you that tomorrow is the last day! Drop off your nips at the store so we can count them up! TY to everyone for picking up our beautiful area ❤❤❤

Pick up nips as many as you can while walking or running.

Take picture once a week of your haul and tag your favorite shoe brand that we carry (Brooks, Hoka, Topo, Saucony, New Balance, Mount to Coast, Mizuno).

Each week begins with Sunday, so the weeks are:
May 11-16
May 17-23
May 24-30
May 31- June 2

You don’t need to post ALL the nips each time. Just a random picture of your daily haul once a week. Make sure you tag us and the shoe company that you hope to win. Sunday is the first day of the week. So this week post one. Next week (starting 5/17) post one, and so on and so forth.

6pm: Meet in the parking lot closest to the beach/playground/pavillion
